Division by One-digit DivisorsDivision by One-digit Divisors
• Today you will learn how to divide a
three-digit dividend by a one-digit
divisor, to get a quotient without a
remainder
• Let’s review these terms

4.
What are the parts of aWhat are the parts of a
division problem?division problem?
• The dividend is the number you are dividing
• The divisor is the number you are dividing by
• The quotient is the evenly divided result
• The remainder is what is left over that cannot
be evenly divided

5.
When we write the problemWhen we write the problem
like this:like this:
136136  5 = 27 r 15 = 27 r 1
136
is the
dividend
5
is the
divisor
27
is the
quotient
1
is the
remainder

6.
When writing it like this:When writing it like this:
136, the
dividend,
moves here
5, the
divisor,
moves
to here
27, the
quotient,
stays
here
1 is the
remainder1365

How do you solve aHow do you solve a
division problem?division problem?
• Solving a division problem is a step by step
process
• The method we will learn today is based the
words for the people in our families.
• They are:
Father Mother Sister Brother

9.
FatherFather
• Father stands for find
• Start by looking at the first number in the dividend
• Find the multiple of the divisor that comes closest
to that number, without going higher
• Use your knowledge of math facts, or a
multiplication grid

FFather =ather = findfind the number closet to the first digitthe number closet to the first digit
• In the 3’s, the number
closest to 7, but not
more than 7, is 6
• The other factor is 2

• Put a 2 above the 7

MMother =other = multiplymultiply the number that is thethe number that is the
factor that you found times the divisorfactor that you found times the divisor
• You found 2, multiply
it times the divisor, 3
• 2 times 3 equals 6
2 X 3 = 6
• Put a 6 under the 7

SSister =ister = subtractsubtract the number you got bythe number you got by
multiplying the divisor,multiplying the divisor,
from the number in the dividendfrom the number in the dividend
• You got a 6 when you multiplied
• Subtract 6 from 7

• 7 – 6 = 1

• The difference must be smaller than the divisor!!!The difference must be smaller than the divisor!!!

BBrother =rother = bring downbring down the next number,the next number,
from the number in the dividendfrom the number in the dividend
• Bring down the next number in
the dividend
• The new number you have is 11
• Now start over again with Father for the ten’s

Now, let’s do the second stepNow, let’s do the second step
• Father: 9 is the closest multiple,
the other factor you found is 3
• Mother: 3 X 3 = 9, put a 9 under
the 11
• Sister: subtract 9 from 11
11- 9 = 2
